Re: Google Chrome installs but does not start up

I get the same reaction from Chrome in my fresh install of 11.4. However, adding the Contrib repo gave me a working copy of Chromium. This has happened in earlier versions of opensuse. Usually, an update (or two) of Chrome resolves the problem. I want Chrome back because I find this new Firefox ug-ly !

Re: Google Chrome installs but does not start up

Yeah I had the same issue, seemed to be a problem with libpng12.so when I tried running google-chrome from the terminal. I'm running OpenSuse 11.4 64 bit.
Running:
zypper in libpng12-0
fixed it.
Now to get VMWare player / Workstation working ..............

Ah libpng, thankyou.
whats surprising is i had this dependency error all over when i tried the milestones , so this time i didnt get any . I assumed it was installed already.
